rob-2 Posted December 16, 2013 Share Posted December 16, 2013 I have this whine. Sounds like a belt. Goes away in about 5 minutes. So I ignore it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nolmers06LGT Posted December 16, 2013 Share Posted December 16, 2013 I've had a trifecta of noises on start up now that it's cold again--2 of them happened last year as well. One is a slight chirp / whistle right as the key is turned--no effing clue what it is. The other is a slight grind as I let off the key, which I'm pretty sure is the starter saying "lube me up". I need to do that. Both of these noises have been present intermittently during completely cold starts, neither is really causing an issue. Lube your starter- both of these noises disappear when you lube it. I'm going to have to use better grease this time- It only solved the issue for one season, because the noise is back. The last noise is belt noise from the power steering belt, only happens on the first turn I make for the day and only happens every now and then. I replace the belt not to long ago and just need to tighten it up. If anyone knows what the unknown noise is (chirp noise), let me know What does the PS fluid look like?
